Water evaporates from the sea into the air, forming clouds. The salt in the seawater remains behind. Winds carry the clouds around the earth, including over land. Precipitation (rainfall and snowfall) provides fresh water to plants and animals on land. Rain directly water plants. Also rain and snowmelt feed rivers and lakes. Many plants in lower rainfall areas grow where their roots can reach small creeks and underground water sources.
